By Tyler Restucci I never realized how many everyday people it takes to create a live show like the VMAS.

Nevertheless, one night, my friend Joely asked me if I wanted to see a performance from […]

I’ve been to a bunch of concerts, yet I still have an intense bucket list of artists that I love and have changed my life in some way or another.

For obvious reasons (the global pandemic and all of that), I wasn’t attending too many live events at the time, but when I heard that Paul McCartney was heading to MetLife Stadium as the final stop of his “Got […]
